Small feet small pelvis?

[clairedoran]

I was talking to dh's auntie today, who is a retired nurse (not midwife), we were talking about me having
another section and she looked at my feet and said 'what size feet are you?' I said '5'. She then
said providing the baby was the right way around, unlike last time then I should be able to deliver normally.
I laughed and she said 'small feet often inicate a small pelvis, which could mean a harder labour'!! Size 5 is fine apparently?!!

Anyone heard this? do you think there is any truth in it?

I've heard this too but wasn't sure if its an old wives tale but you've heard it from a nurse then I guess it must be true!

Heh well I don't think I look like I have a huge pelvis from the outside but I have size 8 feet - or at least I did until they I got pregnant and now I appear to be a size 9

I'll let you all know if Oscar shoots out as easy as shelling a pea though
